Course Introduction
Course Overview
This course is part of Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) Training. This course will help prepare Suppliers for the upcoming U. S. Steel Oracle transition. Oracle will provide enhanced capabilities for Suppliers to receive Purchase Orders, respond to RFQs as well as view receipts, shipments, receiving and payment status. The iSupplier Portal is a part of Oracle’s internet procurement solution, which enables secure and transparent business transactions between U. S. Steel and its Suppliers. It facilitates secure, self-service functionality for Suppliers through the internet using a standard web browser and allows them direct access to their information. Additionally, iSupplier provides a transparent environment where Buyers and Suppliers have the opportunity to become integrated partners, as both parties are able to access the same information over the internet. This course details Sourcing and Online Negotiations; how to view, acknowledge, print Purchase Orders (POs); how to view Delivery Schedules, Receipts, and Returns; how to view Invoices and Payments; and how to register for iSupplier through U. S. Steel’s SteelTrack.
Objectives
This course provides an overview of iSupplier for Suppliers. After completing this course, Suppliers will be able to: • Understand the iSupplier Portal • Complete Vendor Registration • Use Sourcing and Online Negotiations • Access and Acknowledge Purchase Orders • View Delivery Schedules, Receipts, and Returns • View Invoices • View Payments
Materials
To complete this course, a Supplier should have: • iSupplier for Suppliers User Guide

L1: Vendor Registration
Vendor Registration Overview
The iSupplier application facilitates Supplier communication through an internet based portal. Real-time access to information and the ability for Suppliers to respond to negotiations are two major advantages that help to improve service to Suppliers as well as reduce costs for both Suppliers and Purchasers. Telephone calls, faxing, and email take time and introduce the possibility of errors. Communicating directly in iSupplier improves efficiency and easily maintains an information trail for bids and record keeping. Registering on SteelTrack initiates the iSupplier communication process. .
Objectives
After completing this lesson, a Supplier will be able to: • Register with SteelTrack, which will allow the Supplier to establish
communication with U. S. Steel procurement personnel using iSupplier. • Reset their password

iSupplier Portal Introduction
The iSupplier Portal specifically enables the Supplier to: • Submit Promise Date Changes: The Supplier can update the Promise Date
field. • Acknowledge POs: Suppliers can record a PO online, respond to a notification,
or record several acknowledgements from a central web form. POs are automatically updated with your responses and notices are sent to the appropriate parties. Both suppliers and buyers are notified if the acceptance has not been recorded by the due date.

• Purchase Order Revision History: Suppliers can review the history of revisions for a given purchasing document; such as POs, releases and agreements, as well as perform a comparison of changes between revisions or across all revisions.
• Review Delivery Schedules: Suppliers have access to information about open delivery schedules, including shipments that are past due.
• Review Receipt and Return History: Suppliers can view all recorded receipts. As a result, they can track their delivery performance for every shipment, view return information, and access the results of the inspected goods.
• Review Invoice and Payments: Suppliers can view the status of invoices and payments directly.
• Supplier Item Summary: The Supplier Item Summary screen is used to view the summary information such as POs, overdue orders, receipts, defects, returns, on-time performance, and invoices to the items that are sourced from the Supplier.
